I would definitely start by printing a self-test page. With your model press and hold the Cancel button and then press the Start Color Copy button and then release both buttons. When this page comes out you should be able to identify the 4 different color sections...black, cyan, magenta and yellow. If any of these seperate areas are choppy or non-existant, you need to replace your cartridge. Here is a link that will show you examples of what you should/shouldn't see on the self-test report.

If you do a lot of printing you may wish to look at an option such as this

You can't get the in in the wrong section of the cart (which I suspect has happened).
Please note the link is for information only and I neither know nor have used the seller listed. A google search may well provided a list of sellers for you to choose from.
I have used a continuous ink supply on my Epson (have you noticed they appear less on here for problems?) for 3 1/2 years now and my printing costs are minimal compred to useing either after market refills or refilling myself.

if you have refilled the cartridge, then it shows that cartridges are not refilled in correct order.
change the cartridge

Hello, this is Harry from www.BusinessSpread.co.uk.
We had the exact same problem when printing, we used 3 different 78 colour ink cartages and they all said 100% full but did not work. We then had a look at the dates on the box and they were all expired so when buying ink from anywhere even PC world or Curry’s always look at the expiry date.
Today I went to PC world and purchased a new 78 ink which said expires July 2011 and it works perfectly fine.
